Your first sentence and your last statement make absolutely no sense.

Lol im well aware.

Look at the Colts during Manning era, we shit all over our division. There were still good rivalries but it didnt matter because they were the better team.

NFC east is a tad different but the same still applies. The better team usually wins, and the Giants and Redskins IMO are way better than Cowboys and Redskins.


I agree to an extent, but the four NFCE teams are a lot closer together than the Colts or Pats were to their divisional rivals when they were dominating the entire league. Giants losing to the Eagles this year wouldn't be nearly as bad as the Colts losing to the Jags or Titans a few years ago.

Might be worse honestly. Considering the eagles are rebuilding basically
Giants losing to cowboys wouldn't be as bad though

You claim you've been watching football a very long time but your assessment of football is so off base.


Divisional games in itself are a challenge compared to non-divisional games. NFC East games are a different animal. NFC East games are always competitive no matter how bad either of the teams are. They beat the hell out of each other and it's usually a very competitive game.


The Giants have beaten some of the best teams every year and yet we'll still lose to the Eagles with Vince Young or the Redskins with Rex Grossman. It makes no difference how bad those teams are compared to the rest of the NFL. It's just a different game for some reason. They know each other inside and out.

I understand that, but next year is a totally different thing.
The eagles especially will not be very competitive at all.... id be surprised to see them get 3 wins.

I understand the whole NFC east rivalries and matchups, very seldom do you see one team sweep the others, but i feel next year is different.

Lets not forgot that each NFC East team will have have 4 losses just from playing the NFC North alone.

It won't be any different. I don't even know the last time a team has swept the division. It doesn't matter how good we were, we still weren't able to perform a clean sweep.


The Giants and Eagles have gone back and forth taking turns with win streaks against each other dating all the way back to the early 1900's.
